Hi,
I am looking for a solution to display a remote directory via ftp in
dired-mode (or in eshell)
Some time ago I got it working with bbdb (simply typing `F' over a ftp
entry and I was done). Now a new window opens and I get a simply command
line prompt:
,----
| ...
| 230-
| 230- Please note that this server is located in Germany, Europe.
| 230- Most packages available are copied from other, mostly US, servers.
| 230-
| 230 Login successful.
| Remote system type is UNIX.
| Using binary mode to transfer files.
| ftp>
`----
Same thing if I do an `cd /anonymous@ftp.uni-erlangen.de:/' in an
eshell.
I hope there will be another solution than tramp. Some time ago I spent
to much time to get it work with ido and icicles. Now, facing the same
problems again, I won't do it anymore.
henry

This uses Ange-FTP by way of Tramp, and works for me:
C-x d /ftp:anonymous@ftp.uni-erlangen.de:/ RET
This works in eshell:
cd /ftp:anonymous@ftp.uni-erlangen.de:/ RET
Works for me in Emacs 22 & Emacs 23 CVS.

Both ways (the first one of course after unloading ido) work, but as
described before, with a prompt in another window.
But with `emacs -q' they work as expected. So something in my ~/.emacs
must cause this behaviour. I'll have to investigate further.
Thanks
henry
